Vegetarian Catering In New York

We know what it means to bite into a juicy, perfectly cooked Burger. We know you know it too. It's heaven! What we didn't know or understand was why it was so hard to get it. Not why it was hard to get a fancy pants Burger for $15+. That you can get anywhere. But why was it so hard to get that same fancy pants Burger at half that price or less. We looked, we looked and we looked some more, but it just wasn't there. So we decided to do it ourselves.
We knew the key was coming up with the best core ingredients - meat, buns & cheese, and to develop a range of premium toppings that would transform the core ingredients into something extraordinary. In New York City when you're looking for the best meat, bread and cheese, inevitably your path will lead you to DeBragga & Spitler, Balthazar Bakery, & Murray's Cheese. Once we had that, the rest came easy. We decided to have our toppings be the things we really liked on our Burgers.
When you buy a Burger from us, when we wrap that Burger for you and put it in the bag, that Burger is medium-rare. If you were to eat that Burger as soon as we hand it to you, you would find it to be cooked to a perfect medium-rare. However most food bought on the street is not eaten on the spot. It's usually taken to the office or home. It usually takes most people 10 - 15 minutes to go from buying the food to eating it back home or in their office. During that time, due to the heat insulating wrapping we use, the Burger actually continues to cook. It is this time lag, that results in the Burger being cooked to medium-well or even well done. The same principle that applies to food bought at a restaurant, food delivered, or food cooked yourself - You have to eat food when it's prepared for it to be at it's best.

Super Tacos is bringing a super amount of good eats on the streets, surpassing your regular ol' taco truck by far. That's probably because they're an offshoot of the corner store in New York City, but regardless, they're so popular they put the show on the road, making it all available on the go.

There’s not a lot to say about NY Dosas that hasn’t been said before — the vegan-friendly South Indian street food cart is one of New York’s most storied lunch stops, thanks to the undeniable charisma of Thiru Kumar, or as the people of Greenwich Village call him, “The Dosa Guy”.
There are a number of solid lunch deals on offer at NY Dosas, spanning many regions of South Asia. Of course you can grab dosas (a type of fermented Indian rice crepe), but Kumar is also serving up lentil patties, Jaffna-style pancakes, roti, and even—on Thursdays only—spicy Singaporean noodles, topped with potatoes and veggies.

At this point, yet another rice bowl vendor isn’t exactly exciting: countless restaurants and pop ups have copied the Chipotle-esque model, but few have managed to stick the landing when it comes to non-sushi Japanese-style bowls. Maze-Maze, we’re happy to say, is a different story. The New York-based tent has become a staple of the Grand Bazaar NYC, slinging Japanese sushi-less rice bowls since 2015.
Maze-Maze is rocking a fair amount of options for you, with rice bowls built around proteins like organic tofu, fried chicken, ginger pork, marinated mushrooms, tuna, and eel. Add to that already solid lineup of bowls some expertly-grilled skewers, and there’s nowhere to go wrong. Hit up Maze-Maze on Sundays at the Grand Bazaar, or bring them right to you and have them cater your next event.
MUST TRY
Ginger Pork Bowl — Maze-Maze’s signature rice mix (organic brown rice, long grain brown rice, whole grain Wehani rice, whole grain black Japonica rice) topped with ginger pork, tomato, cucumber, avocado, tofu, egg, shiso leaf, nori, and bonito flakes

When you decide to open a plant-based restaurant, it’s important that the type of food you’re serving can easily let the produce be the star of the show. Italian food is undeniably perfect for that, and at Adelina’s in Brooklyn, the produce shines.
The menu at Adelina’s is as authentic as it is veggie-heavy. Grab some fresh-baked focaccia, some panzanella, or some handmade pastas, but don’t skip their pizza, served pinsa Romana style (long and rectangular), and topped with things like mushrooms, truffle oil, and artichoke hearts. And the best part? They cater. Book Adelina’s to bring the produce-heavy goodness to your next event.

Vegan “sushi” is at the heart of Beyond Sushi, a New York-based chef-driven operation. Though they’re not using real fish, they’re slinging plant-based “sushi” with just as much visual flair as the real thing, and the health-conscious eaters of NYC can’t get enough.
Besides rice paper wraps and “sushi” rolls (stuffed with black rice, roasted celery root, avocado, and baby kale), they’ve got seasonal dumplings, side salads, and soups. If you’re looking to bring the not-just-grain-bowls vegan fire to your next event, do yourself a favor and book Beyond Sushi to cater it.

They’ve also got some secret recipe vegan mac & cheese, as well as fries and salads, so you should have no issue finding something to love at Marty’s V Burger. In fact, why wait?
